Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has enjoyed a terrific start to his Everton career.
Everton shelled out £25m to sign Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall from Chelsea in the summer transfer window, and it’s proved to be a super recruit so far.
Ben Foster said Dewsbury-Hall looks ‘a million dollars’ and David Moyes has been really pleased with his performances, too.
However, despite being statistically one of the best playmakers in the Premier League, the Toffees midfielder doesn’t appear to be anywhere near the England squad.
That’s led one international team to consider making an approach for him.

Ireland consider approach for Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall
Dewsbury-Hall has never been capped by England at any age group, and considering Thomas Tuchel is trying to build continuity ahead of the World Cup, he’s unlikely to get a call-up for the Three Lions.
As such, the Republic of Ireland are considering an approach for the Everton star, as he is eligible to represent them through his family heritage, according to the Liverpool Echo.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall could be convinced by his Everton teammates
Jake O’Brien and Seamus Coleman are both Ireland internationals and will likely be tasked with convincing Dewsbury-Hall to join Ireland.
Ireland are currently bottom of Group F in the World Cup qualifiers, so their remaining games are absolutely crucial.
They’re in action against Armenia this evening and then have two more games against Hungary and Portugal next month.
Perhaps Ireland will try to get Dewsbury-Hall involved for the next November international break.
